Whats this ive made...?

I made some grain jars and some brf cakes. i had grain left over and inocculated it in some random tubs.
This one (top 3 pics) was beautifully colonised execpt for 1 third, which had nothing on the grain. So i ditched the uncolonised grain and put a casing layer.
The white stuff dosnt look like fluffy mould. it reminds me of salt cristals when salt water dries on a plate.
I covered the tub with clean towels cus i thought maybe the casing was supposed to be colonised before i expose it to light.
I have plugged up the biggest holes in my tub with poly filler fluff. i have a fan in the room and i am misting.
Ive read so much ive confused myself!
My mini brf cakes look fairly happy right?
My mexicana on grain is a solid lump in the jar despite bashing it in my bike tyre.

 bad picture, don't know what I'm looking at, looks gross though
 looks like some partially colonized dirt. doesn't look happy or healthy

that's not how it works buddy. you can't cover it with a towel/blanket. that makes the holes you put in there nearly 100% useless. perlite needs to be 4-6 inches deep. there needs to be room under the chamber so that air can flow through the bottom holes and then through the perlite. perlite just sitting in the bottom of a tub doesn't do much
 idk what this is other than some hack attempt at cakes but those shouldn't be colonizing inside of a tub. they should be on a shelf

if they are cakes I wouldn't be moving them around and shaking them up so much
 that's bacterial. toss

also that fruiting chamber contraption looks like it has some holes, and then some holes stuffed with polyfil. that's not going to work well

My little cakes are getting there and don't seem to have any contams. I got some new perlite. Don't have any better plastic boxes yet. Need to wait till new year and I have cash but i'm going to try them in large freezer bags. Should I make holes i'm the bags to fruit them or just leave them open? Also I read about invivo. Can I leave the cakes in thier little cups?

I made brf cakes with a spore vial. They look quiet happy. Need to put them into something to fruit now. They are wee mini cakes so I was thinking the large freezer bags with perlite and ill get some better plastic tubs next year

You have to wait till new years for more money?
Dont put perlite in a zip lock with a cake. A plastic tote is 5bux. Go rob someone / ask for early allowance
